Hearing his words, Milan felt happy and found what Fatty was doing to be hilarious, thus giving him a pinch.
Mills coldly said, “You don’t want your reputation even after I gave you a chance? Do you believe when I say that if you listen obediently, you can leave peacefully, but if you don’t, you’ll have to crawl out of here?”
If it was in the past, Fatty, who had never fought before, would definitely endure it, but right now, even though Fatty was still afraid of dying, he was not afraid of finding trouble! Having been on the battlefield with blood raining down, this brat in front of him was entirely harmless. Furthermore, with how he dared to bully the “weak”, even the clay man had a limit to his anger [1]. Fatty immediately simply shook his head “I don’t believe!”
The sounds of the argument had long alerted the manager of the restaurant. The moment that middle-aged person saw their family’s young master arguing with someone else, he couldn’t help but secretly whine. Today, the guests they had invited were extremely important, yet this young master with a donkey temperament—one who would not retreat regardless of the situation—was here arguing with someone. Thinking of ways to pacify them so as to not alert those guests within, he had to use that first lieutenant as a scapegoat.
At this moment, even without having Mills to ask him over, the manager immediately came rushing fiercely towards them before ordering Tian Xing Jian, “I am the manager of this restaurant. May I request for this sir and your partner to leave right away!?”
Seeing the manager chasing him off without understanding the situation, Fatty became even more furious as he shouted out, “Letting out your mother’s fart! This father will stay here today unmoving!”
The moment he was enraged, Fatty would feel his body tremble from the secretion of adrenaline. This was a small psychological sickness he has had ever since he was young. He truly did not know whether it was from fear or excitement.
Mills, seeing how the fatty first lieutenant was trembling, thought that he was afraid. Laughing loudly and uncontrollably, he ridiculed him, “Since your mouth is so hard, then you shouldn’t be so afraid. What I am seeing is as if your body is trembling after getting struck by lightning.” Turning towards the manager, he said, “Ask someone to throw these two trash out!”
Hearing Tian Xing Jian’s voice becoming louder, the manager was full of sweat. Even though the glass wall in the middle could isolate voices, once the matter became blown up, it could no longer be hidden. He knew there was no benefits in arguing back, so hearing the orders given by Mills, he immediately signaled for the security guards, who were glaring like a tiger by the side, to chase them off.
Tian Xing Jian tried to control his rage. Using his body to protect Milan, he coldly said, “I encourage you not to do such silly things. If I’m truly angered, then don’t blame me for going crazy!” This chap had been humiliated continuously by others and was reaching the tipping point before his personality splits.
How could those security guards care about his threat? A dozen husky fellows flocked forward. There were two who came first to try and grab Tian Xing Jian to escort him out. This job was something they had plenty of experiences with, and they knew they had to solve it as fast as possible to prevent it from affecting the other customers.
But, how could they ever match the might of an angered soldier from the special forces? Fatty let out a back-hand slap, lashing on the face of the first security guard who came onto him. That guard was just like a broken sandbag as he fell onto the floor with a “Dong!”, puking fresh blood onto the floor.
Afterwards, with a turning whip-kick, the second guard’s body was hit, causing him to fly out and stop only after colliding with a few tables. He curled up his body as he laid on the ground without releasing a single moan.
As quick as lightning, two moves had happened within a split second. Everyone was stunned. The security guards charging up behind the two were frightened to the point of losing their souls. The security guard at the front immediately stopped, causing the ones behind to clamber up together with the front like a bottle gourd. One had to know that the two rushing at the front were their most physically fit vice team leaders, who that first lieutenant had settled within just a single second. How could there be anyone left standing if the rest charged forward as well?
One unlucky fellow was pushed from the back, causing him to receive a punch on his nose by Tian Xing Jian. His face was akin to the opening of a peace blossom, his mind was full of resounding chimes, and he held onto his face with flowing tears.
Fatty fiercely shouted, “Who still dares to come forward?”
He was genuinely showing his combat strength right now! For a long period of time, nobody dared to answer him.
That group of teenagers and the manager were frightened and felt anxious in their hearts as they kept quiet out of fear. Mills’ girlfriend was turning pale as she hid behind Mills, trembling from the fear in her heart. They knew that they had truly angered a monster which should not have been touched.
All the attention of the people within the small hall went over to them. They had only one word to describe Fatty’s action—stunning! When this land-based army first lieutenant was angered, it felt akin to a raging Tyrannosaurus! His movements were full of murderous spirit, and with just a single move, the two best security guards were beaten to the point of not knowing whether they were alive or dead.
That slap on the face and that kick were so heavy that they felt frightened from them. Hearing the sound of impact when it hit those two security guards, everyone could feel the tremor in their hearts. Such terrifying speed and power could not be easily defended from. With just a slight imagination of putting themselves in the two security guards’ shoes, everyone could feel the cold wind moving through their back.
This was also Milan’s first time seeing Fatty becoming angered. She did not know that this harmless and gentle chap could actually be so powerful. Usually, he would put on a face that showed him as being nonchalant when bullied, but when he was angered, nobody would truly dare to look him in the eyes. Was this fatty truly the person whom she could casually bully at anytime? That line of thought led her to think of when Tian Xing Jian had slapped her butt, causing her face to blush once again as her ears started to feel warm.
Using her hands to cover up her warm face in an attempt to cool herself down, Milan felt perfectly content standing behind Tian Xing Jian. That broad back of his was akin to a thick wall; it was sturdy and safe.
At this moment, a male of over 50 years came squeezing his way through the crowd in anxiety and anger as he asked the crowd, “Who dares to create trouble here?” Looking at that manager, he grabbed hold of his collar and shouted, “What are you doing? Do you not know there are guests today?”
Before he even finished speaking, this person looked towards Mills, who was standing by the side. Without waiting for the manager to reply, he sent a slap towards Mills, scolding him, “You bastard! I told you to stay at home, and you dare to come here and make a mess of things!?”
Without questioning, this person was most likely the boss of Si Mai Restaurant, Millis’ father.
Even though Mills had endured a slap, he felt happy at the sight of his saving star. With a face of grievance, he immediately recounted the incident while embellishing the details. Tian Xing Jian and Milan had become two evil pieces of trash who were jeering at the heroes, and he himself had become a teenager who fought for justice.
Knowing the morality and conduct of his own son, how could this father of Mills not know what his son was thinking? “I’ll settle this with you when I come home!” Turning towards the manager, he asked, “Is what Mills said the truth?”
How could the manager deny it? Furthermore, it seemed on the surface that such a matter had happened. Looking downwards like a clove of garlic, he replied, “That’s right, Mr. Joseph.”
Joseph turned towards Tian Xing Jian and coldly said, “Are you planning to get out by yourself, or should I ask someone to pull you out?”
Go f*** your mother! Tian Xing Jian was angered to the point of laughing at how ironic the saying—like father, like son—was. He shrugged, “I don’t really feel like walking out by myself. Go ask someone to throw me out.”
Joseph had not truly seen how tyrannical this land-based army first lieutenant was. One had to know that usually the people he had dealings with were generals ,and even so, there had never been such a rude person.
Joseph gave a look at the two bodyguards by his side, deciding that he would give this loathable first lieutenant a lesson. His bodyguards were both commando retirees and not someone those security guards could match with.
This damn fatty would have to pay the price for angering him.
[1] Think the meaning behind is that a clay man, who seems to be a passive and weak thing, will become ‘angry’ if the limit is reached.
In the end, the two who paid the price were the two commando retiree bodyguards. One had to know that the champion of freestyle unarmed combat in the special scouts battalion was Ballack, and even he was knocked out from a single kick by Fatty, who had trained for several months in the gravity room.
If competing in speed, Tian Xing Jian had a pair of innately fast hands. If competing in strength, Tian Xing Jian had trained in the gravity room, allowing for his strikes to be extremely heavy. Both his hands and his legs were just like four hammers, mighty and fierce.
As the two bodyguards came closer, like lightning, Tian Xing Jian quickly moved up to them, as if he was a lion pouncing on his prey. The bodyguard had only seen a flash of figure before he was immediately forced to use his hands to parry the attack. With a “Ka!”, Tian Xing Jian’s lateral kick struck on the arms of the bodyguard, causing him to retreat a few steps and remaining in that spot whilst barely being able to stay standing. With a pale face, he checked his own arms, as he could feel the bones in his arm had fractured from the kick of Tian Xing Jian.
With an extremely fast speed, Tian Xing Jian dodged the sneaky kick from the second bodyguard that came from below him. Grabbing onto the bodyguard’s ankle with his right hand, he exerted all of his strength and struck at his abdomen with his elbow, much like a strike from a hammer. This bodyguard curled up from the attack and fell onto the floor; he was in so much pain that sweat started forming on his forehead.
Tian Xing Jian slapped his hands a few time before looking at Joseph with a smile. “If you want to throw me out, I’m afraid you might have to find several other people.”
Joseph’s expression turned ashen. He had not thought that his two bodyguards would not be able to deal with this fatty’s attacks. Right when he was feeling anxious and angry, he suddenly saw a Federation lieutenant general walking towards him.
Joseph bitterly gave him a smile, saying, “General Mi, I am truly sorry, but as you can see…”
That lieutenant general waved his hand to stop Joseph from continuing. Walking towards Tian Xing Jian, he snorted at him, “Such a brilliant land-based army first lieutenant! You have truly destroyed the reputation of soldiers of the Federation!”
Seeing that general, Tian Xing Jian was immediately stumped. He was not afraid of anyone else, but the person in front of him was a general. Even if he had greater capabilities, he would still have to succumb to this natural enemy of his!
He had met a true opponent now while he was bullying others, making him curse his luck. Fatty was about to try and explain what had happened when that lieutenant general just ignored him and signaled for the military guards to escort Tian Xing Jian away. He ordered, “Lock him up first. After today, send him to the military police for further investigations and strict punishments!”
At this moment, two female soldiers immediately came up to Tian Xing Jian and stood in front of him. They said in unity, “Who dares!?”
Tian Xing Jian felt dizzy. The two female soldiers who dared to shout back at the lieutenant general were none other than Mei Duo and Ni Ya.
Thereafter, more and more figures came pushing their way through the crowd and gave Tian Xing Jian a salute before standing in front of him. These were the Federation soldiers who had previously been rescued from the concentration camp. The person in front of him was none other than the hero of the Federation discussed in the hottest news, the one who had rescued a total of 270 soldiers.
Colonel Peter walked out from the crowd and rushed towards Fatty to give him a salute before turning towards the lieutenant general and saying they would shoulder Fatty’s mistakes. Seeing such a scene, the crowd started stirring from what had just happened. Several journalists who entered the restaurant as guests knew with their acute senses that this was a serious bomb on the news.
Under the flashes of light, the crowd remained silent.
Astonishment, confusion, indignance, and disbelief were shown on the faces of the lieutenant general and Joseph.
The lieutenant general knew that this matter was no longer that simple. These Federation soldiers, who had become famous, would certainly not take such an action for an unknown first lieutenant who was causing a disturbance in the restaurant. He laughed bitterly in his heart. If only he had listened to the explanations given by the fatty or if those two hot-headed female soldiers did not rush out, this matter would not have been blown up to such an extent.
Suddenly, looking at the person behind that soldier, the lieutenant general saw a person sticking her head out and looking around. This person’s actions were making him wonder if he should laugh or not. “Come out, Milan!”
At that moment, Milan, who had always been hiding behind Tian Xing Jian, immediately hid herself even further behind the back of Fatty. The warm and firm yet soft chest sticking on the back of Fatty made the point of contact feel numb, feeling as if his spirit was ascending to heaven.
Who would have thought that after she extended her head out of curiosity to see what was happening, she would be discovered. Hearing the voice of the lieutenant general, Milan knew that she could not hide any longer. Walking out shyly, she said, “Father.”
The moment Mills and his group of friends heard how Milan addressed the lieutenant general, they almost fainted. They knew that this time, they had created a huge problem. A first lieutenant had actually caused all the Federation heroes to step forward and share the punishment, and that beautiful woman who was scolded as trash by Mills was actually the daughter of the lieutenant general.
Milan’s father, Federation Lieutenant General Mickey, pointed at Tian Xing Jian and Colonel Peter before commanding, “Follow me. You all deserve to give me an explanation.” Saying that, he led Milan towards an empty corner of the restaurant.
Tian Xing Jian gratefully looked towards Peter and all the comrades who shared battles of life and deaths with him, softly saying, “Thank you, everyone.”
Colonel Peter smiled. “We are honored to do something for you. Even if we are made scapegoats, without you, we would not be here.”
HIs voice might not have been loud, but it was enough for the journalists, who had been extending their ears out, to hear clearly, learning what they had said. Their minds worked truly fast as they knew that the mysterious company commander was none other than the first lieutenant in front of them.
Peter’s voice was loud and clear within the quiet restaurant, “Receiving the punishment with you is our decision. From the moment we saw you, we are already brothers who live and die together.”
Including Joseph, Mills and his group of friends, and the large number of guests and journalists within the restaurant, they could see how this land-based army first lieutenant’s eyes were filled with reverence, admiration, and adoration.
If those prisoners-of-war who had been saved had become heroes, then what about the person who relied on his own strength to bring the group of captives out of their predicament while making an important deduction? This special scouts vice company commander should be the hero amongst all heroes!
How could such a hero jeer at his own comrades whom he shared life and death with? How could he create trouble for no reasons at all?
Seeing Tian Xing Jian and Peter walk towards the lieutenant general, the crowd began discussing. The more Joseph thought about what just happened, the more he became angrier. Slapping Mills, he said as his entire body trembled, “You child! See what have you created? This father is going to beat you to death!”
Without waiting for Joseph to beat him, Mills slapped himself before saying softly, “Father, it’s my fault. I’m sorry.”
Although Mills had a sloppy and reckless character and would occasionally bully others, he was still a relatively staunch Federation teenager. At his age, he would especially worship heroes in his mind. Today, he came here especially for those Federation heroes who had escaped successfully from the enemy’s rear lines after running a thousand miles while battling on the bloodied battlefield.
But who would have thought that he had eyes but could not recognize Mount Tai [1]? The biggest hero was standing in front of him, yet he had offended him with his tiny heart. Thinking about that, he began feeling ashamed and immediately slapped himself a few more times. He truly felt guilty.
[1] Lol. If you don’t recognize this, then I dunno what to say.
